March Madness Update

Category: My vege project - 2012 | Posted: Sat Apr 14, 2012 11:56 am

Update:

My March Madness went well with seed sowing. Have actually too many peppers and tomato seedlings. Eggplant is growing VERY slowly. Put some peppers out late March as a test crop with a pop bottle cloche.
They're actually growing well, but I might see some problems later from the cold nights. I plan on planting out more late April and seeing what the difference in growth and health is.
Extra warm weather here is wonderful!

Plan in Place, waiting on my sowing dates

Okay. After several weeks of reading, planning and more reading on growing veges, I think I'm ready for my grand experiment!

As with everything else do, I seem to jump in with
both feet. In 2012, I expect as many failures as successes with my vege growing, but that's okay 'cause that's how I learned with flower seeds.

There's nothing like going "out back" every day after work and seeing what's up with my plants. DH thinks I'm nuts, but he likes that my projects keep me out of trouble!

Come on, March! I'm reading to sow some seeds in the windowsill!!!!
